From The President

With year two behind us, the Syndicate’s new board continues to build on its previous efforts with ongoing initiatives aimed to improve the industry’s performance.

Our dedication, teamwork and most importantly, our manifesto, mission, vision and overall raison d’être, are the drivers behind all our efforts. Over the past year, the Syndicate has continued to work very closely with the Ministries of Tourism, Economy & Trade, Labor and Public Health with regard to the Food Safety topic, the certification system as well as other legislations. We also continue to work with many partners and groups to facilitate services to the members of the Syndicate and the industry in general.

We have crowned our successes this year with the launch of The Beirut Restaurants Festival , an annual event that puts our industry in the limelight. For its first launch, the festival celebrated Beirut #1 City for Food in the world. It will be an ongoing symbol of the unity and strength of our industry.

And as always, I invite all owners of restaurants, cafés, night-clubs & pastries to join the Syndicate, so that we can create a bigger lobbying body and work together to ensure that our industry remains a strong and pioneering one in the country.

Latest standards of health safety

The SORCNP was directly involved in providing pragmatic solutions and displaying leadership and knowledge in food safety and hygiene. The SORCNP’s diplomatic approach, through intensive meetings with Minister Wael Abou Faour, were key to establishing an agreement that resulted in a positive impact for business owners.

The SORCNP along with its partners, presented a unified food safety and hygiene law that was adopted by both the Ministry of Tourism & the Ministry of Public Health. A Memorandum of Understanding was signed with GWR Food Safety and Boecker, the leading Food Safety and Hygiene Consultants in the region, forming a close bond with the Syndicate. As a result, the proposed food safety law is on par with global standards and an executive training program was created.
